You're absolutely right! Just look at what social media platforms have been doing lately, for example Tumblr rolled out their community feature. Then if we look back a few years ago Discord rolled out their version of forums. It's obvious that forums still work, they still have a purpose but you need to find that purpose for your community if you want it to succeed.

Sometimes forums lose their purpose as they grow and try to accommodate everyone's topical interests in the flight to capture more traffic.

I don't care what people think. I'll never let my forum die. I'll always keep improving, and taking my community to higher levels. Technology has improved, but so have forum softwares such as Xenforo.

I am the same way just keep pushing every day and have a vision to what you really want.
